How it all began.

Robert Auer – visionary and current managing director – knew he was fascinated by plastic and the potential to manufacture plastic parts from early on: The former apprentice carpenter discovered his passion for plastic during a plant tour. Thanks to financial support from his mother, Robert Auer was quickly able to fulfil his dream and acquire his own injection moulding machine. Shortly after that, he began production of his first plastic parts in an old farm in Taufkirchen. The success story had begun...

1985 – 1991 Founding of Robert Auer Kunststofftechnik in Kraiburg am Inn. At this time, products were produced and marketed exclusively for the horticulture industry. The shrub box was the first plastic box offered in the product range in 1991.

1992 - 2003 Shortly thereafter, production of thin-wall food pails began. In 1994, the classic “Euro container” became the first industrial box following development of the shrub box. The high-volume production of bottle crates in 2003 was a key driver of the company’s growth. Investments could then be made in the production of new products.

2004 - 2013 In the following years, the product range constantly expanded and existing products were developed further. Since 2008, AUER Packaging has also expanded internationally. In recent years, subsidiaries have opened in Switzerland, Poland, the Netherlands, Spain, and the United Kingdom.

2014 – today In 2014, the latest chapter in the company’s story opened with the acquisition of the technology park in Amerang. Since then, a variety of conversion and extension work has been carried out on the site, the area of which totals around 50,000 m². Construction work on the company’s own logistics centre and the third production hall on the Amerang site will follow in mid 2016.
